Birth Date 14 December 1906 Birthplace Calgary, Alberta, Canada Death Date 14 September 1980 (Victoria, BC) Occupation Artist, Architect Biographical Text Maxwell Bates was born in Calgary on December 14, 1906. He studied under Lars Haukaness at the Provincial Institute of Technology and Art in Calgary, from 1926 to 1927. However, Bates was mainly self taught. He and W. L. Stevenson paired up to study impressionist and post-impressionist painting. They met twice a week to discuss what they learned about French painting. In 1928, Bates' abstracts first appeared. In that year, because their pieces were too modern, Bates and Stevenson were banned from exhibiting with the Calgary Art Club. In 1929, Bates and Stevenson made a trip to the Art Institute of Chicago to study impressionist and post-impressionist paintings, the work of Cezanne, Seurat, Van Gogh, and Monet. In 1931, Bates went to England to study painting and architecture. From 1932 to 1939, he was a member of the "Twenties Group". When World War II broke out, he enlisted with the British Army; he served from 1940 to 1945.He was imprisoned and his book A Wilderness of Days describes his experience. After the War ended, he returned to Calgary for a short time. In 1949 he attended the Brooklyn Museum Art School, until 1950. Bates collected Japanese colour prints. He also developed an interest in the philosophy of art, and wrote a series of articles about it in "Canadian Art" and other periodicals. His drawing was influenced by Michelangelo and Rembrandt, and his painting by Goya, Daumier, J.L. Forain, and post-impressionism. His street scenes, landscapes, still lifes are romantic. He primarily worked with oil, watercolour, chalk, and pen and ink. He also produced lithography. Bates, with A.W. Hodges, co-designed St. Mary's Cathedral in Calgary. He was also a member of the Royal Canadian Academy of Art . He passed away in Victoria in 1980.

Birth Date 1916 Birthplace Victoria, BC Death Date 2007 Occupation Artist Biographical Text MYFANWY PAVELIC was born and raised on Vancouver Island. She had little formal art training, but at the age of 15 an exhibition was arranged for her by Canada's foremost West Coast painter, Emily Carr. Pavelic's love of music and talent as a musician attracted her to the career of a concert pianist but when a problem with her wrists barred further development in this field, she turned her creativity to drawing and painting. For several years she spent part of each year in New York. Here she observed the changing climate of the international art world. She experimented with abstract expressionism but finally reaffirmed her commitment to her own evolving figurative style. She has worked in oil and acrylic and has successfully experimented with tissue collage. Charcoal, one of her favourite media, has been used for both prepatory sketches and finished drawings. For most of her career, Pavelic focused on the human figure; she is renowned for her portrait paintings. Local and international personalities have come to her Saanich studio for sittings, from Maxwell Bates and her fellow artists of the Victoria "Limners" group, to former Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau. However, the music world remained a constant interest. Its creative personalities provided her with much subject matter for her paintings and sketches. These people included Mstislav Rostropovich, Paul Badura-Skoda, Glenn Gould, Jan Cherniavsky, Zara Nelsova, Ravi Shankar and her close friend, actress Katharine Hepburn. Pavelic's now well-known portrait of Yehudi Menuhin was commissioned by Lord Thompson for Fleet for Britain's National Portrait Gallery in 1984. Pavelic was awarded the Order of Canada, was a member of the Royal Canadian Academy and held an Honorary Doctorate of Fine Arts from the University of Victoria. She died in Victoria on May 7, 2007.
